AleHanArla GazetfR.
The GAZETTE is now the Oldest paper IN
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness mas
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS ofits existence. In
its columns has always been found.a mirror
of passing events, and the careful chronl-
cling of the history of WHAT going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is always
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for OBJ
tanning news than any paper outside OF the
national capital. Situated as it is SO close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpred that day in
every portion of our own domain as we'll as
from every part Of the babitable globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than tho morning pa
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE a great desideratum with mer'
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub
lished regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monWealth are TO be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature WILL
as ever. receive careful attention.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily 10
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchas'
ing. That this is elf-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi
tion-nearly as large as the daiy--is sent
all over this section of country three times
week, and is read by thousands, most OF
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad.
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, ap-
parent.
